If they wait until next year, they will earn 10% on the account. The distribution is fully taxable at the marginal tax rate of the taxpayer, which is 24% for this year. What would be the marginal tax rate NEXT YEAR to just make the distribution financially advantageous this tax year? Enter your response as a whole number percent without the "%" sign and using 5/4 rounding (25.67% = 26)
